Doing this at the wedding of Dave Casserly and Sonia Wurzel a couple of weeks ago (for which Jenna wrote the dance) as a #2 left-file dancer, I preferred to turn-single-right into the dolphin hey, to use up the time. And before that had to think about making a nice arc after the left hand with neighbor, again to use up the time gracefully.

Lovely. Is there a recording of the music available for purchase anywhere?
@DavidRoodman2 ай бұрын
There is this, but it's hard to dance to: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIrIhHptl7ppoNU

There is not a recording intended specifically for this dance, but the tune (Dimanche a Paris) was recorded by the band Nova on their album "Chasing the Sunset." If using it for this, you have to wait through the first 30 seconds or so before it becomes danceable.

The source of all the giggling at the end is definitely my screw-up! As an active, I went back to my home side after the second star. @carrierose4692 is a model of good humor.

You could reach out to the composer (davewiesler.com/) and he might be able to help

The Kalamazoo English dance group is planning to work on this dance bit by bit over the upcoming months. The stars outside the minor sets and the poussette merging into a hey will provide a nice challenge and inject some continuity to our monthly dance series. Thanks for the suggestion.

Terrific dance, Jenna! Looks like this one wasn't recorded on the 'Champagne' recording - anybody know of a recording of the tune that's purchasable?

My favourite dance of the evening -- as you can see, I couldn't help but raise my free hand during the turns, likely inviting the scorn of many a strict dancing master averse to any display of affectation. But as I teach my wee friends in the dance, "Let your Light shine through!"

I enjoyed watching your demo to Red House. We danced it last night to John Wood's "Love waits near" a 48 bar waltz it works well for older folk!

Thank you so much for posting this! I was at this ball -- if you look carefully, I'm the lad in the background. wearing the red sash over one shoulder and turning my partner with my hand held high at about 1:00 in. I traveled all the way from Tucson, Arizona for this ball, and it was well worth it! HUZZAH! Your Humble Servant, Sir Christopher

@muscasket The music is a slight variation on "L'Annette," which was published c. 1820 in Simonet's "Fashionable Parisian Quadrilles." The devisors of this dance reworked the music to fit the dance.
